Create a Greeting Card Contest

Create a greeting card and WIN a $10,000 scholarship!?!?!

You can only enter once. Each month, the company selects the top 100 entries and puts them on their Facebook page for voting. The top 10, plus 1 “Judge Favorite” will advance to the final round.

Last chance to submit an entry for this contest is March 1, 2019.

All artwork, whether photographed or drawn, must be completely original.  To view the contest rules or submit an entry, click here.

If you are interested in creating something, talk to me about your idea. You can use class time to work on it and get a project grade for it.

Reminders

Your time is valuable, don’t waste a second of it!

  • Headphones/earbuds are put away
  • Telecommunication devices are silenced and put away
  • Be at your computer and logged in when the bell rings

Also remember that when you use equipment, you need to put it back in the correct place. It makes it easier for me to do a spot check for it at the end of the class period.

  • Headphones on monitors
  • Cameras on correct shelf (with photos/videos deleted)
  • Camera battery on charger
  • Drawing Tablet in rack
  • Drawing Tablet Pen in box

Canvas ePortfolio Issue

I’ve received an email from the Canvas people. They are aware of the issue, and are currently working on fixing it.

You can still upload your files to the Canvas files area. However, you are still unable to embed an image into your ePortfolio. You should still be able to put your SWF files in since it involves code.

I’ll let you know when they notify me of it being resolved.

3rd period

Want a donut party???

Donate your spare change during third period. Money goes to the Turkey Takeover Project which purchases gifts for the students at Lamarvelous. The class that raises the most money will earn a Shipley’s donut party from student council. Donate through Thursday!!!

Countdown

Welcome back!

Remember that this is a short Six Weeks, so make sure you are using your time wisely. Remember that ALL TELECOMMUNICATION DEVICES should be put up and not in use during class.

  • Two weeks (10 days) until Progress Reports
  • Three weeks (17 days) until Semester Exams
  • Four weeks (20 days) until Report Cards

Open your ePortfolios so that I can check your work today.
